Skull Ring
Iggy Pop

Reviewer :: Gaelian Ditchburn

I have to admit that the majority of Iggy Pop's music was before my time. In my memory, he is better known from the surreal science fiction spaghetti western Atolladero I saw once late at night. Iggy played a demented paedophile in the service of a wheelchair-bound cyborg bad guy.
Perhaps the younger generation's lack of familiarity with much of Iggy's music is some of the reason why on Skull Ring there are several collaborative efforts with some of the new guard of the industry. Jamming with Iggy you will find the likes of Green Day, Sum 41 and Peaches. But along with them you will also find a few tracks including The Stooges and Iggy's backup band, The Trolls.
I'm sure Skull Ring would be a great addition to the collection of any die hard Iggy Pop fan but I think I'll be giving it a miss.

Baby Monkey
Voodoo Child

Reviewer :: Gnr Shannon Joyce

Written and produced by Moby under the name Voodoo Child, this is his second album release of electronic dance music under that pseudonym.
He wrote and produced it with the premise of shaking all the associated single releases and music video promotions that come with his albums. Primarily recorded to remind him of the best underground clubs he's been to, it will leave you satisfied that if you haven't been to one you're not missing out on anything.
Techno heads or mild doof-doofers steer clear of this one, but those who enjoyed playing with their synthesizers back in the '80s, this will rock your world.

Ladies Night
Atomic Kitten

Reviewer :: Cpl Alisha Welch

Not exactly funky, definitely junky - undoubtedly a CD that will encourage the hidden teeny bopper in us all to emerge.
With the recent news of this girl group's split, this may well be their last album. Many will breathe a sigh of relief and many will simply shrug their shoulders - and that basically sums up this questionable attempt at divaness. Let's hope they don't launch solo careers! Take my advice and don't waste your money.

Berlin, the sex, the city, the music
Petrol records
Various artists

Reviewer :: Lt Simone Heyer

Finding an album indicative of a country - or city's, music style can be an aural challenge. The latest bunch of location-related CDs from Petrol Records - the city series, is equal to the task.
Berlin, the sex, the city, the music, has a vital yet seductive sound that's ideal for those who'd prefer to be in a club in Berlin, than heading to the pub up the street.
The album includes a fair mix of genres with some German tunes thrown into the mix.
It's not too dancey, but has enough bass to captivate and beat to intoxicate.
